Hi. Thank you for that great thought! I'll hang on to that one!

No, we are going to La Rosiere. Only 2 work days left!!!! Heading out on Sunday. Just trying to pack a few things at the moment and work out what we ACTUALLY need. lol.

Just out of interest - Does everyone usually just wear their coat and not take a spare? We were taking 2 but have sort of figured we probably don't need it!

You really don't need a spare coat. You'll probably take loads of layers of fleece too that your don't need.

Most days I just wear a thermal base layer, t shirt and coat. If it's really cold I'll stick a fleece or a hoodie over the top. Really only seems to matter on the lifts though. You'll be fine when you are moving.

Hi all

I just thought I'd let you all know that I've been on my first boarding holiday and really enjoyed myself on the slopes. The snow was great. I had a few private lessons in the end (there weren't anymore people booked on the group ones so they were cancelled) , I found the lessons great fun. I'm still sort of stuck against a brick wall on some turns but really enjoyed myself. I can't wait to go again!

Thank you all for you helpful advice.
